Tero -

Goodness how sensitive you are. It is not biggoted to say that "even the Finss can design better phones than the Q" it happens to be true. You should have taken it as a compliment!

And you should take the complement because it won't continue and the Q will get its design act together. The US is a bigger maket than Finland and mobile phone penetration will evnetually get to be higher than Finlands and it isn't so now because of the pre-mobile era of availability of wireline phones in the US compared to that of Finland.

So far as the "EU" or whatever it is called this week making better aeroplanes than Boeing well quite frankly that is childish logic. Even if it were true these are only products and one is good a particular time and is then superceded by another. Airbus didn't evlove as a commercial company it was an artificial creation designed to allow the French not to feel that their masculinity was threatened because they wouldn't have a major airplane manufacturer. But now the days of great airplane manufacturers is gradually going the same way as shipyards went for twenty years after the war.

If you want to believe that the the new technology driving the US's economic growth is coming from somewhere outside the US well I suppose thats your right but you shouldn't then accuse others of attitudes inimical to portfolio management.

Still I have given NOK.A a couple of what I thought were very nice complements recently. I happened to mean them 'even' though it is a Finnsh company.

Regards,
